Requires mining skill 65 to mine.

Please note that moss agates seem to be missing from the table of simple gems found elsewhere in this site.

Kommentar von Runninghorn

The best place to find tin is in the wetlands in a cave coords are 53,63 for the entrance for those without coords it a cave just north of Dun Algaz mobs inside are 21-22 spiders I was able to grind up my mineing to lvl 125 easily in this cave becasue it respawns realy well. There is also Incendicite ore in there also

Kommentar von Plopers

Smelting this for skilling up mining:

Yellow at 65

Green at 70

Grey at 75

Bronze stays yellow at 75, so save your copper bars!

Kommentar von pyro93

I believe the best place for tin ore is the jangolode mine in westfall.In the cave the tin veins are all over you can get about 200 ores with one run if you dig everything you see.

Kommentar von Jonny2x4

Where is the BEST place 2 mine Tin Ore?

Kommentar von Tchaalina

Good places to mine tin:

Barrens. Look in the oases and in the south parts of the area, right north of RFK/RFD.

Westfall. As stated farther up, the Jangolode Mine is an excellent area.

Thousand Needles. Tin spawns all over here, and you may also start leveling off Iron once you're up on that skill level.

Kommentar von Everwinter

If you play for Horde and you don't fear Alliance the best place for mining is Jangolode Mine in Westfall (came there with a friend who was also mining and gathered 85 tin ores).

Kommentar von Serenciel

If you're looking for tin ore, a great place to find it is within The Deadmines. There are veins inside the instance, and outside with all the non-elites (few, I know), but even better are the miners both in and outside the instance. Many of the miners drop anywhere between 2 - 5 tin ore. It's better to be higher level to do this so they're more easy to kill and the run through is nice and fast (and lucrative!)

Kommentar von techweenie

I'm not sure why everyone is suggesting Jangolode mine in westfall for tin, as I only found one node up there. You'll have better luck farming Deadmines a couple times. I get almost a full stack of tin ore on each run, plus a lot of copper.

Kommentar von coriolis2012

I found this number to be a gross overestimate. I farmed everything at this location and received 10 tin ore, 5 silver ore and 8 incedicite ore. One place not mentioned by others is the eastern rim of Loch Modan.

Kommentar von coriolis2012

This number reported is a gross exageration, I found absoutely no tin ore in this location, only copper and 1 silver vein (tin's rare spawn). Even if I caught a bad spawn or someone else farmed it recently, the cave system simply isn't large enough to contain the 50 - 100 tin veins necessary to support the claim of 200 ore/run. I've found the eastern rim of Loch Modan to have 10-20 tin veins, most of it in the open so you don't have to kill everything to get to the ore. But if you can handle the heat, Dead Mines is even better.

Kommentar von Necro47

I am having a great deal of luck with the caves in the northwest portion of Redridge Mountains.

I'll clear one cave and then run to the next, mining on the way. By the time I finish the second cave, respawns are already starting in the other cave and in between.

The added benefit of hardly anyone being in the zone helps out a lot.

EDIT: By the gnoll cave, there seems to be 3-4 'phantom' mine nodes. I saw them on my mini-map, but could not get to them. Just a heads-up.

Kommentar von slyhold

this was a bogus place the tin is very far between and u must fight to much

Kommentar von lyrick

the name of the mine in wetlands is THELGEN ROCK and yes the skill are increased but u get incendicite ore and there are 2 tin ore rocks :)

Kommentar von Ostracized

From personal experience, I find that Deadmines is by far the best place to get tin (unless you're a character pre 30). There's a ton pre instance but the real catch is the instance itself. There's always a guarantee that there's at least 2 tin nodes in the instance, grab them, exit and reset the instance. You can get 10 easy points in 10 minutes, and you can do this once per hour, it beats wasting time riding around trying to look for ore!

Kommentar von Paegan

I just don't get it with these miners that seem to like running around in caves. Staying in one small part of the zone waiting for respawns is a horrible way to farm ore. Unless you're botting.

If you want tin then go to the Barrens or Hillsbrad Foothills, those are the two best places by far.

Kommentar von Ehlayra

As of the latest patch, tin ore is a breeze to find; I had very good luck with hillsbrad foothills, especially around the altarac mountians area. Plenty of tin, some silver, and fast respawns.

Kommentar von Excelencia

As for patch 4.0.3 probably best place to mine tin ore is now Stonetalon Mountains. I used to mine tin in Thousand Needles (which drowned now) but what not so great about it was that you got tin only every 4th or 5th node you encountered; now in Stonetalon Mountains almost all nodes are tin; i got 5 stacks by going all around the mountainous places by doing one circle around. Also got 2-3 copper ore.

Kommentar von Zenoid

Ruins of Alterac in Hillsbrad foothills is FILLED with tin vein like every 2 feet there is a node and inside the cave i got 5 nodes and they spawn pretty quick easily lvled my mining in this area.

Kommentar von runeack

alterac is AMAZING now i got three stacks of tin and a stack of silver in about 20 minutes

Kommentar von runeack

alterac is now AMAZING for tin and silver. its the best place now

Kommentar von anhsieh

Another amazing place to mine Tin-- but only tin-- is Darrow Hill, about in Hillsbrad Foothills. Very small location, very fast respawn rate. Unfortunately, the monsters-- levels 22-25, various kinds of Yeti-- also respawn quickly, but they're simple.

WARNING: remember that you must have 100% + mount so you can mine them fast, because they respawn faster when you mine them quickly. Ive have noticed that when you mine them with 1 minute or more time between them, they respawn slower. Hope this helps all the miners =P

Kommentar von Lolythax

Dunno if anyone's spotted this, but Kurzen's cave, AKA The Stockpile in Northern Stranglehorn is a veritable goldmine (pardon the pun) for tin. In a single run at 32 (mobs are 25) I got 35 tin. Now add into that the the ones near the entrance have already respawned on my way out.If you're also a skinner, Stranglehorn is going to make you very rich. Running between veins can get you at least a stack of leather.

Kommentar von Dorberis

As of Patch 4.0.6 I would have to say the best spot without a doubt is Northern Stranglethorn Vale. Thats the only veins there are throughout and near grom'gol especially.

Kommentar von snuzzle

Emphatically agreeing with this frozen Ruins of Alterac. Not only is the place teeming with Tin nodes that spawn crazy fast, it's also hands-down the best place for Silver. I mined up a bunch of tin and silver, flew to UC to unload my bags, and when I came back less than ten minutes later EVERYTHING had respawned. It's nuts.

The little ogre cave with the cauldron outside of it is probably the best. Always at least 5-6 nodes in it. Sometimes half of them are Silver.

Kommentar von matwood069

best place to farm tin is defintly hillsbrad foothills in the snowy area just go around the edge and theres a lot of tin and some silver and theres a cave with 3-5 tin evertime you circle around

Kommentar von Braemar

Stonetalon has about as many Copper nodes as it does Tin, making it a fairly poor area if all you want is Tin Ore. If you need to smelt a bunch of Bronze and you need both types of ore, Stonetalon is decent. Otherwise I would follow the advice of everyone else and go to Alterac or Northern STV. Make sure you don't skip out on the Uplands above Alterac or the hills and Yeti cave below, there is as much ore there as in the snowy areas and I found 6 nodes in the Yeti cave.

Kommentar von tequito

Alterac Mountains, by far, is the best place to farm tin ore since cata. Nothing else spawns, except silver.

Just do a loop around the mountain peak and go in the caves, and you'll have more than you need in no time.

It used to be "the place" for iron, but not it is for tin.

Kommentar von bookworm13

For the best resource for determining the Cataclysm adjusted mining levels as well as the best zones to farm them in, browse through the Mineral Veins listing.

Teach an elf to fish...

Kommentar von DByers40

If in the low 20's alterac is for you but if lvl doesnt matter STV is full of the stuff you cant hardly go anywhere around grom without tripping over the stuff.. Happy Mining!

Kommentar von rodrain2

Confirmed, Alterac Ruins in Hillsbrad is a gold mine of tin ore and by the way. I farmed up a decent amount of silver ore also. Hands down the best place because of how small an area u have to cover.

Kommentar von jassaraous

I've found that Hillsbrad Foothills is good for Tin Ore. Around the North mountain areas. Starting at the mountain range at Sludgeguard Tower past Dalaran Crater to the Ruins of Alterac. The most around the Ruins of Alterac. The Hillsbrad areas have a couple deposits, but the Ruins of Alterac is pretty loaded. Fairly decent spawn rates as well.

Kommentar von Audav

Tin ore is fairly common in the yeti cave in Hillsbrad Foothills, I usually get at least 3 nodes minimum, and sometimes I will have nodes spawn while I am in there.

Kommentar von expel

The best place I found as of 2/7/2012 is Stranglethorn Vale. Everywhere! Check every cave, pick up some nice Silver/Gold/Iron along the way!

Kommentar von robinlhe

This is just an update to let you know after the launch of patch 5.0.4 Ruins of Alterac is still very much the best place I have found for the gathering of tin ore and sprinkled with silver as well.

Kommentar von Palomillo

As patch 5.0.5 the frozen part of Hillsbrad foothills (Ruins of Alterac) is the BEST place to farm Tin Ore, in 30 mins of farming i got around 140 Tin Ores, 32 Silver Ores, 174 Coarse Stones and 4 random jewels. Also you can get some cloth (Wool and Silk) from the mobs on the zone (They all are humanoids).

Kommentar von DOLamba

I've been doing mining, primarily as horde, around Ruins of Alterac in Hillsbrad Foothills.

EVEN with competition, it's easily the best place to farm tin. The density of tin spawns up there is incredible and the mobs aren't too hard. I've mined there on a lvl 16 paladin and still went rather fine.

I mainly just run around in the snowy part.

Happy hunting.

As of 7.1_____________________________________________________________________¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯In-Depth Farmer’s Guide to Tin Ore_____________________________________________________________________¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

I jumped on my miner and timed different zones and different routes in order to get the most amount of ore. Keep in mind that I am a HORDE DRUID, which allows me a faster time in grabbing ore, due to instantly popping in and out of flight/aquatic form.

While there are other items you can obtain while mining nodes, I merely state the ores and stone I’ve collected—no gems or other such items.

This zone can net you a ton of Tin Ore, but in saying that, there's going to possibly be a lot of competition coming your way. While I don't personally go into caves, if you find competition on the outside, try going into the caves and nabbing the ore, as most farmers won't bother.

The map above is different from the video’s map, because in the video I was getting too close to horde camps and I wanted to somewhat avoid them. I like this location due to the fact you’re not flying your way through huge masses of trees.
